Cinnamon is the smell many people think about when they think about fall and winter. This is because many people cook and bake during these seasons more than most other times of the year. With both Thanksgiving and Christmas, this means there will be the smell of cinnamon in many kitchens for the next few months. These candles will make you think of that wonderful smell at any time of the year. They also make beautiful decorations for anybody’s house.
Materials Needed:
Pillar candle, at least 3-inches in diameter
Cinnamon sticks
Floral shears
Hot-glue gun
Dish or coaster
Instructions:
1. Measure candle height; cut cinnamon sticks to size with floral shears. You’ll need about 20 lengths per candle.
2. Run hot glue along cinnamon stick; affix it vertically to side of candle. (Use low-temperature setting to minimize melting.)
3. When first stick is dry, glue next stick snugly against it; repeat to cover candle.
4. Place finished candle on a dish or coaster.
